Chihuly Flower Pool - photo 687

738 Bute St, Vancouver

This series of stepped pools, bordered by open concrete walkways, descends alongside the residential building on Bute street between W Georgia and Alberni. With its open accessibility, tastefully lit small fountains, and pleasing proportions, make it remarkable enough. What makes this water installation truly unique is the enormous glass case standing in the lowest pool which contains the Dale Chihuly Persian Wall glass installation which is large, bright, colourful ceramic or glass sculptures of flowers. Superior! By the way, if you are in Seattle, make sure to check out the Chihuly collection!
